Consanguinity in north Jordan: prevalence and pattern.

M al-Salem1, N Rawashdeh.   

Abstract

The rate of consanguineous mating in north Jordan was 63.7% with an average inbreeding coefficient of 0.0283. First cousin marriages were the most predominant type (58.5%); villagers showed higher levels than city dwellers. The level of female education did not influence consanguinity rate.
